IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of the Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK JUNE 4, 1881 Mr. Max Nebelung has returned rejuvenated from the San Juan Hot Springs. There are already over twenty people at the springs. Residents of Anaheim school district should remember that they have only this month in which to pay their school taxes, and the District Attorney's fee for collecting such relinquent tax is $10.00. According to the report of the school census marshal there are in Los Angeles 3,617 children between the ages of 5 and 17 years, and 1,232 children under 5 years of age. Four hundred and sixty-one children were born during the census year. Mr. L. N. Evans has accepted a position in the cash store at Los Angeles, and began his duties on Wednesday. Under the management of Mr. Heimann the business has been built up until it is now the best known and largest of the kind in the county. The ravages of gophers in the vicinity of Newhall is almost beyond belief. Mr. W. M. Bailey, who returned from there a day or two ago, informs us that what was at one time a promising field of five thousand acres of barley has been nearly all destroyed by gophers—fully four thousand acres of it being made worthless. An election for school trustee and assessor will take place this afternoon. The candidates for trustee are Mr. Saxton, the present incumbent and Mr. W. M. Bailey. Richard Melrose is a candidate for re-election as assessor. The election board is composed of D. W. Fish, Inspector, and E. J. Pellegrin and Ernest Ferguson, judges.

For sometime past Mr. Leonard Parker has been shipping his seedling oranges to San Francisco with very good financial results. They are a large sweet tasting orange and are second neither in size nor quality to budded fruit. Many of them measure 13 inches in circumference, and only 80 to 100 of them can be crowded in a box. Dr. J. E. Fulton, of Fulton Wells, has commenced an action in the superior court of Los Angeles county against Bacon & Co., San Francisco, for $20,000 damages for publishing in Whitworth's Directory of Los Angeles, disparaging and damaging statements concerning his property, (Fulton Wells is now known as Santa Fe Springs.)—Ed. Memorial Day or Decoration Day as the 30th of May is variously called was observed in Anaheim this year for the first time. This observance is a high and noble duty and we feel will in time begenerally observed throughout the Union. It helps to weld together in closer ties of botherhood those who fought against each other in the great conflict. Trinidad Yorba died at his residence in Yorba precinct yesterday morning and will be buried this morning at 10 o'clock. He leaves a wife and eight children. In the death of this member of the Yorba family the Americans lose a friend, a man who had no prejudices against them, but who, on the contrary was ever ready to do what lay in his power to help his neighbors. His death will be generally regretted. The Right Rev. Wm. Ingraham Kip, D. D., Bishop of the Diocese of California, will preach at St. Michael's church tomorrow morning and administer the apostolic rite of confirmation. The services will begin at 11 o'clock and will conclude with the celebration of the Holy Communion. The Bishop will hold similar services at Tustin city in the afternoon to begin at 4 o'clock, and will return to San Gabriel early in the week. In answer to inquires in regard to the probable yield of grapes in Anaheim, we found it to be general opinion that the extraordinary yield of last year will be surpassed, unless some unforeseen calamity occurs. The first grapes did not set well, but the subsequent bloom has done admirably. Nothing has so far occurred to give vineyards a set back; in this respect we are luckier than our northern neighbors whose vineyards were damaged on Thursday of last week by a heavy and unexpected frost. We learn with great pleasure of the success of Mr. Harry Hanna, a whilon attache of the Gazette office who went to Phoenix A. T., about a year ago. He has been promoted to the position of manager of a branch house of Hooper & Co. at the Vulture mine. Continued prosperity to him.

He has been promoted to the position of manager of a branch house of Hooper & Co. at the Vulture mine. Continued prosperity to him. Still another gentleman formerly connected with the Gazette is winning fame and fortune in the Territory, as will be seen by the following extract from the Tucson Journal: "Moye Wicks has been in the Territory less than two years and during that time has succeeded in building up a lucrative new practice and at the same time found time to look after and become interested in valuable mining properties. A recent sale netted him a clean $10,000. Though young in years he evidently has a discreet head." The closing examinations of the Anaheim Public Schools began on Tuesday. The pupils in Mr. Guinn's room were examined on Tuesday and Wednesday. The first was the class in English literature. The examination was written and the questions placed on the balckboard covered a wide range of literature. There were examinations in botany, United States history, geography, language lessons, grammar, composition and arithmetic. The examinations were all written. The questions, we understand were those used in the examinations of the pupils of the San Francisco public schools. Pupils to be promoted will be required to obtain a standing of 70 per cent. It is the opinion of the teachers that a written examination is the only correct test of a pupil's knowledge. On Thursday the pupils in Mrs. Hare's room were examined in arithmetic, geography and spelling. A portion of the afternoon was devoted to declamations, readings, recitations and dialogues. Although no special preparation had been made for this part of the exercises, yet the pupils taking part in it acquitted themselves very creditably. We were especially pleased with a declamation by Master Walter Crowther. Although his selection was quite lengthy, he had it well memorized, and his enunciation was very clear. "The Gossips" a dialogue by Misses Katie White, Maggie Higgins, Minnie Zeyn and Hattie Mendelson, was well rendered. Miss Rosie Davis from Mr. Guinn's room volunteered a recitation. Her selection was finely rendered. The young lady has a clear distinct enunciation and with practice will make a very attractive declaimer. The graduating exercises took place last evening. In our next issue we will give a report of the exercises, and also of the examinations in the primary department.

C. Mauerhan is building a residence on his ranch west of town. He is soon to be married to a well known young lady of San Francisco. Prof. Walker of the high school has purchased ten acres northeast of town and purposes during vacation going in for horticulture. Frank Baum has sold his six-room cottage on Hedwig street to C. Becker of Pittsburg, Pa. Mr. Becker will engage in the plumbing business. "Largo" Bayha entertained a number of brother Elks of Long Beach at Yorba on Sunday. A barbecue was one of the special features of the day. N. Hart is decorating his Center Street block with a new coating of paint and Herr Heitshusen is doing the same for the interior of Germania hall. Mrs. Sarah McFadden entertained about 200 friends at the Masonic hall, Fullerton, some evenings since, in honor of her son, Clarence McFadden and his wife. Bishop Conaty will preach at the Catholic church the morning of the 24th inst., and in the afternoon will address the graduating class of St. Catherine's Academy in the opera house.

The engagement is announced of Miss Sara Federman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sam Federman of Los Angles, formerly of this city, and Samuel Herskovitz of Los Angeles, recently from Spokane. The wedding will take place in the fall. The Republican County Committee will meet at Santa Ana on Saturday for the purpose of fixing the time for primaries and for holding the county convention. The primaries will probably be held some time next month and the convention in August. Wm. Schumacher and Fred Echneider have purchased the Palace Meat Market from F. W. Fleischman and will in future conduct the same. Both are well known and experienced butchers and are deserving of a liberal share of the public patronage. Pete Nicolas was in town on business on Saturday. He has general supervision over his father's large landed interests hereabouts and keeps things moving along smoothly. Pete finds time occasionally to provide amusement for his friends and there will be an outing in the near future up at Sycamore flats. The Anaheim Building and Loan Association has elected the following officers and directors: N. F. Steadman, president; J. F. Ahlborn, vice-president; H. A. Dickel, treasurer; F. A. Backs, secretary; Richard Melrose, attorney; F. A. Backs, Joseph Backs, Aungust Backs, C. F. Grim, Frank Baum, and A. E. Schumacher, directors. The association has been in successful operation for eighteen years. L. Z. Huntington has been appointed by the county horticultural commissioners inspector of orchards in this vicinity, and on Monday began his work of inspecting orchards with an especial purpose of ferreting out purple and red scale. He states the former pest has found lodgement in several local orchards and needs attention. White and black scale are things of the past. Now we have red and purple. The new inspector informs us he will camp upon the trails to the end that these pects may be speedily stamped out. Commencement exercises of the high school will be held at the operahouse on Friday evening. Prof. R. W. Kelsey, vice-president of Whittier College will deliver the address, taking for his subject, "A Vision of the Best of Life." Diplomas will be issued to the graduating class. There will be no admission charges. The graduating class is composed of Agnes Rimpau, Isabelle Richardson, Anna Schumacher, Theodore Dickel, Fayette Lewis and Edward Merritt. County Auditor Hall reports that he has a cash balance on hand of $110,813.58 of which $50,000 will have to be turned into Horse Show For Business Women W. K. Kellogg's Arabian horses will be presented in a special show as the final event of the convention in Pomona on June 12, 13 and 14, of the Southern District, California Federation of Business and Professional Women's clubs. The show will be at 1 o'clock on Sunday. The Kellogg horses trace their ancestry directly to the Arabian desert. There are more than 50 on the ranch now. Ancestors of about half that number were brought directly from the desert by the late Homer Davenport in 1906. Most of the others trace to the Blunt importation from Arabia to England between 1879 and 1880. Other interesting traces are through an importation from the desert for the Chicago World's Fair, and ta ta the stallion, Leopard, given General U. S. Grant Fair or Good Crop Prospects Shortage of Moisture May Bring Decline Before Harvests are Completed California fruit growers are expecting fair or good crops of the principal fruits and nuts for 1931 when judged by conditions prevailing on May 1, according to state crop reports on file at the Farm Advisor's office. With the generally recognized shortage of irrigation water and soil moisture, it seems probable, however, that certain areas might experience declining conditions before harvests are completed. Prospects are Irregular Not unlike other years of water shortage, the large number of growers reporting at this date show considerable irregularity of crop prospects within a district and from one district to another. This report has, fortunately, been compiled from a splendid number of grower reports who have freely commented as to tree or vine conditions, blossoms, water, and crop conditions. Although there are no forecasts issued as to the probable production of these crops at this date, with the exception of cherries, still these conditions data as collected should express rather definitely the present position of certain crops. Development is Earlier On a basis of the whole State, many of these crops are developing somewhat earlier than is usual at this date.

Kelsey, vice-president of Whittier College will deliver the address, taking for his subject, "A Vision of the Best of Life." Diplomas will be issued to the graduating class.

County Auditor Hall reports that he has a cash balance on hand of $110,813.58 of which $50,000 will have to be turned into the state as soon as the transfer can be made. At the commencement of the holidays this county owed the state $24,586.42 and the auditor had his statement ready for the mails when he received word from the state controller to hold it until the first business day after the discontinuance of the holidays. Mr. Hall will now be compelled to revise his statements owing to the fact that considerable money has been received since the preparation of the first report. Roger C. Dutton, son of Geo. E. Dutton of this city, was some days ago awarded a valuable cash prize for the best thesis written by a criminal law student of the law school of the University of Southern California on the subject, "The present Grand and Petit Jury system; should it be continued, modified or abolished?" The prize was offered by the head of the criminal law department, Frank R. Willis of the firm of Davis, Rush & Willis. Mr. Willis is unqualified in his praise of the Dutton thesis saying that one would seldom find this subject better handled in a brief way. A year ago Dutton won a scholarship to the local law school offered to high school graduates in Southern California for the best thesis on several assigned subjects. His subject was, "The American Revolution." Miss Carrie E. Roberts, who for the past fourteen years has been teaching the higher classes at the Central Grammar school, during the past six years as principal, has tendered her resignation to take effect at the close of the present school year. Miss Roberts resignation is entirely voluntary on her part, and it is needless to say her services are parted with regretfully by the school trustees and citizens of the community alike. She will during the coming year devote herself to rest. She will be succeeded by Prof. Oswald, who for some years past has been assistant principal of the Orange schools. Other changes in teachers are as follows: Miss Knapp, principal of the primary school, goes to Toronto and will probably not return; Mrs. Knight goes to Azusa, and Miss Mosseman to Los Angeles. Prof. Walker and the corps of high school teachers will be retained, Development is Earlier On a basis of the whole State, many of these crops are developing somewhat earlier than is usual at this date. No widespread frost damage has occurred in any fruit county since the lossom season began. A few light frosts were experienced over small areas but have brought but minor reduction to the total crop. Some wind losses have occurred in certain orchards of almonds and apricots. To the present time, damage from plant diseases or insects has not been abnormal, although the dread is frequently expressed as to what may be in the offing for the drier orchards and vineyards from such pests as red spider and grape leaf hopper. Too Early for Predictions According to E. E. Kaufman, agricultural statistician, the condition of walnuts is reported as 79, which would indicate a good crop should a favorable season follow. It is recognized, however, that no dependable estimate of the walnut crop can be made at this early date. It is too early to interpret present conditions about citrus, although the bloom has generally been satisfactory. These crop conditions are recorded as Navel oranges 87, Valencia oranges 91, Grapefruit 91, and lemons 87.

The stomach nerves have been over-stimulated, and food sours. The corrective is an alkali, which neutralizes the acids instantly. And the best alkali known to medical science is Phillips Milk of Magnesia. One spoonful of this harmless, tasteless alkali in water neutralizes instantly many times that much acid, and the symptoms disappear at once. You will never use crude methods when once you learn the efficiency of this. Go get a small bottle to try. Be sure to get the genuine Phillips Milk of Magnesia prescribed by physicians for 50 years in correcting excess acids. 25c and 50c a bottle—any drugstore. SUPERFLUOUS Hair Permanently Removed MRS. F.
